A GLORIOUS MORNING.
The warm glow OF 90 den sunshine
filed the sky and air, and bathed the
land as genial as the lovcliest day in
June. The birds wee all making the

RICH ANAHEIM.
Far southward spread The broad.
rich l,lain embracing vineyards, or
ange groves, rich past ures, orchards

resources in the world. Some fifteen
miles away the Pacific lay pulsating
and cleaning in the golden sunlight,
from his broad breast come these
gen'le winds loaded to repletion wi b
life-giving ozone, pure, invigorating,
health-restoring, youtt-gl,ing, as
would hav been the springs of eter-
nal youth, had Ponce de Leon
been alb e to find them.

All around the moth side OF the
valley the great mountains r'Te 10
grand heights, and on their world-old

The answer is last Sunday at Ana

vicinity are becoming well known.
The pure climate. excellent soil, per-
feet drainage, absence of dust, abund-
ance of water and such elements
of the situation are getting to be
well understood Should people rec
,ognize the fact that property Is held
here at less thai. fifty par cent. OF the
prices held in other places, they see
that as wafer seeks its level, the iu-
trinsic value OF lands at Andhe:m
will push prices up to the ranges OF
the other most eclectic spots in Los
Angeles County, AMI that
there will be u big day
of reckoning with large balance in
favor of those who buy now.
